Book Synopsis The No-nonsense Guide to Water by : Maggie Black
Download or read book The No-nonsense Guide to Water written by Maggie Black. This book was released on 2004. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Water sustains life: without it, humans cannot survive for more than a few days. And yet this precious fluid is becoming increasingly politicized as the debates about control and ownership of water itself, and of the many organizations which govern its use, gain force. Maggie Black explores the many roles water plays in human life and, as the defense of water rights looks set to become an explosive issue, provides a clear overview on the vital issues of distribution, technology, irrigation, land use and commodification.
